People often refer to older single's as 'leftovers.' Well, I am no leftover, nor do I deserve to settle for someone that is.

Here's What I'm Working On:

1. Get down to my goal weight

2. Set my finances up for a better future!

Past goal accomplished in 2012:

Date 40 men!

Okay Again...

It's Spring Break in Vegas. I'm home. While Salt Lake is my home now too, there is just something about going back to your roots. Something that is so real and rejuvenating. I was supposed to have a date with one lucky #8 here but as it turns out, we were both too busy. Maybe next time. Meanwhile, I am having a fabulous time just hangin' out with my family and taking a break from finding, dating, and trying to get married. Everyone needs a break sometimes right? Okay, I feel like I've been breaking more than anything lately but it's okay. I'm ready to get back on the wagon just as soon as I get back to the promised land. As for my efforts in this areas however, they have not been completely forgotten in my journeyings away from home...I have still been researching and planning my next moves. In fact, I actually started reading, "He's Just Not That Into You." Now that I'm reading it, I feel quite silly for holding on to hope for Gentleman #1 for so long. I always knew that it was an empty hope but now I just feel ridiculous for expressing it and for going back and forth with him. I know better. He's just not that into me and it's time to move on. I'm okay though. I really am. Of course I haven't seen him in a few weeks and that always helps. I'm definitely ready for a few more dates soon though. Soon. First, I have to enjoy some more good times with my sibs and then head back to the land of the cold and the vampire white skin where my next few victims await.

The Experiment: 40 Guys...One Year

As I enter the world of blogging, I find myself in an unforseen predicament. I am a 30 year old, single female living in...Utah?? This, I can assure you, is not how most young mormon girls imagine the destination of their life's paths at this point. No...we grew up dreaming of being the wife and mother that we were taught should be our foremost goal in life. Yet, here I am, with no husband in the foreseeable future. Contrary to any former misconceptions, I am still alive and you know what...I love it and am living it to its fullest, despite my marital status!! Some people may define me by this, but I am proud of my accomplishments and the person I have become today. Even so, like every other woman, whether they admit it or not, I want to get married and I'm frustrated with my progress in this area! I have come to the realization however, that in order to achieve my goals in life, I have to be proactive and take charge. Who says the guys have to do all the work?? I was recently challenged to try dating 40 men in my quest to find, "the one." While a seemingly daunting task, I think I am up for the challenge. I have created this blog to not only track my progress, but to share what I know and have learned or will learn about the esoteric "world of dating." I can assure you that I am no expert here but I intend to give this my best effort, seeking new methods of meeting men, striving for better dating ideas, and in the process, hopefully, creating a more dateable/marriageable me.
